Nike Sportswear commands the industry’s most varied heritage archives, which is very helpful because their competitors are quite well equipped in other areas. For example, New Balance is widely considered the quintessential manufacturer of grey suede and mesh classic running shoes. NSW offers less of these, particularly relative to the more exuberant stuff, but here’s a case where the newest Nike Air Max 90 reflects the combination of tonal grey and orange that we saw on not one but two NB 1300s this year. What makes this one from the Swoosh stand out is its careful use of Iron Purple, which itself fits nicely into that white/grey/black tonal range, but gives these a little bit of that ‘Just Do It’ energy. Check them out with more photos waiting below and know that you can grab them right now at Premier.
